A journey that has taken me low but from which I have risen and fought thanks to #plasmadonors who make it possible for patients like me, in need of PDMPs, to have access to IG treatments #grateful #IPAW2024 #cidp #gbs GBS|CIDP Foundation International
Begin oktober is het 'International Plasma Awareness Week', een moment om duidelijk te maken waarom het doneren van plasma levens redt. Daarom maakte ik in opdracht van Plasma Protein Therapeutics Association (PPTA) deze testimonial met Nancy Di Salvo en haar ontroerende verhaal over leven voor en na het effect van een plasma-afgeleid medicijn. We namen de getuigenis van Nancy op tijdens de International Plasma & Proteine Congres in Athene eerder dit jaar. Ik ben altijd bijzonder blij als mensen voor de camera nét datgene vertellen wat jij op voorhand gehoopt had. En da's exact wat Nancy deed. Waarvoor dank! Ga naar pptaglobal.org/donate voor meer informatie over plasmamedicijnen en plasmadonatie. Nancy Di Salvo Ilana O.
